Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Development of the Ontario High School The purpose of the present work is to trace the growth of the public secondary school in Upper Canada from the Act of 1807, which laid the foundation by establishing the first District Public Schools, down to the time when it developed its present form. The institution being over a century old, it appears to be high time that some connected account of its origin and progress should be written. It is only by looking back over the course that has been travelled, that we can appreciate the secondary school as it stands to-day or can steer our future course in such a way as to avoid the rocks that are sure to be encountered in the future as in the past. This task has not, up to the present time, been undertaken except in the brief compass of an encyclopædia article, or disjointedly in the general histories of education. Among the topics that will require discussion are the evolution of the present curriculum, the financial support and various steps leading to the present division of the burden, the qualifications and training of teachers as well as the pedagogical methods, equipment and buildings. Among the questions to be answered are: How and when did grammar schools become high schools? When and under what influences did secondary schools become coeducational? When was the scheme of written examinations adopted, and what has been the influence of this? When and why were collegiate institutes established? Occasional references will be made to the movements in Europe and the United States, which appear to have influenced opinion in this country. To one who reads the documents that tell the story, it must be evident that the chef d´oeuvre of Ryerson was the public elementary school. Yet, there exists to-day, an instrument of secondary education in this province of which we have every reason to be proud. The Ontario high school, when all the difficulties of its task are considered will compare favourably with that of any country of like social conditions. However, it may be admitted that the public school is, at the present time, the more efficient school. Not that it is better manned, or better equipped, but because it leaves less to be desired in the performance of its task.
